June Favorites!

Here we go on my first favorites post!

June all

We have some really great products here so we can just get started!

NYC

NYC Liquid Liner in Black

First up is one that I have heard talk of but never really felt connected to until this month. True story: I have the shakiest hands known to man. That coupled with my hooded eyes, and you can bet winged liner is always a chore for me. I never really have been that great at it beyond a baby wing. I have had the most success with the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, but still only a tiny bit of success. This for some strange reason glides on the easiest and makes the best point even though the tip isn’t the smallest. It’s like wizardry, and is now added to my semi-weekly wing practice.

 

Murad

Murad Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum

More information about me: I break out. Around my mouth and jawline typically, which I have in recent months found out was due to a lovely dairy allergy. But even since stopping a lot of dairy, and greatly improving my skincare routine, I have spots. Many many many spots that don’t seem to go away. I thought the only solution was time, until I tried this. I used it twice a day for a week, and my more recent spots disappeared. I bought it on a whim and was not expecting anything near that rapid of result. I cannot wait to see after a few months how it will lighten my more deep set spots! Stay tuned for updates!

Laura Geller Gilded Honey Highlighter

Something I am so sure everyone who loves makeup even a little has heard about. After spending many a trip to Ulta holding it my hand as I walked around the store and then setting it down because I just couldn’t spend the money (does anyone else do that?) for some reason in June it found its way up to the cash register with me. Let me tell you: everything that has been said is true. It looks like liquid gold on your face. Love love love love. That’s all there is to say about it.

E4

Morphe E4 Brush

I had heard about this for a long time as a great blush brush. And to tell you the truth, I have such a love hate relationship with blush. For my fair skin I love a little natural flush, but either it’s too strong and doesn’t blend or it disappears in 2.5 seconds. What’s even the point? Enter this brush. It was sent to me in my monthly Morphe Me subscription service (are you doing this yet? $19.99 for at least $30 in brushes every month and it’s ALL THE GREAT ONES do itttt) any who and after seeing our Queen Jaclyn Hill rave about it as her go to blush brush I was super duper excited. And for good reason. It applies all my blushes perfectlyyyyy and blends like a dream. I am now allowed to love blushes.

BB

Beauty Blender Cleansing Solid

Finally we have this guy. I had heard about it for oh so long. “It’s a miracle worker, cleaning the ever difficult beauty blender in seconds!” I truthfully never believed it to be worth $16 when I could buy many other things. And wandering through Sephora, there it was somehow in my hand as if by magic. And truth be told, everyone was right. It cleaned my Beauty Blenders and foundation brushes in SECONDS. It smells amazing and comes with that lovely pink scrubby thingy (technical term obviously) to swirl your brushes on when cleaning. The once awful task of cleaning brushes has now been made less awful.

And there we are my June Favorites! If you were thinking of purchasing any of the products, I say go for it! I would love to hear any new favorites, and I am sure no matter how hard I fight they will end up miraculously in my hand at checkout. Here’s to a great July!
